National Student-Run Entrepreneurship Conference Comes To T.O.

The annual Impact entrepreneurship conference will be coming to Toronto on November 18 and 19. Entirely student run and organized, the conference brings together 300 students from coast to coast to meet, learn, network and be exposed to job opportunities.

The conference's keynote speaker will be Harry Rosen, founder and executive chairman of leading menswear chain Harry Rosen, Inc. Also speaking will be Bill Tatham, an entrepreneur who sold his tech start-up company Janna Systems for a Canadian record of $1.76 billion in 2000.

The evening of November 18 will bring a formal banquet to the Metro Toronto Convention Centre with Harry Rosen's keynote address, which is open to the public for a nominal fee. The banquet will host 600 guests and feature a charity silent auction.

The conference serves as a flagship event for Impact, a student-led organization committed to promoting educational and professional development by allowing students to explore and learn more about the entrepreneurial world.  Impact's mission is to foster innovators, thinkers and economic movers, to stay competitive in a global economy. Impact is a non-profit organization run by university and college student volunteers from across Canada.  More information is available online at www.impactconference.ca .
